6.1 Main drivers of deforestation and forest prediction
By hovering over the following map you can find the data for every country regarding the percentage of forest lost through deforestation in the last 30 years in relation to 1990, the value for deforestation in the last 30 years, the current forest area [1000 ha] and the number of years in which the forest area will be completely lost, given the deforestation for each country in the last 30 years.
The color scale is showing the percentage of forest lost, which is making the main drivers of deforestation visible.
Note: for some countries the deforestation data is 0 or not available. If possible, for those countries the deforestation value was calculated by the difference of the forest area between 1990 and 2020. Otherwise they are colored white.
